As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =
(3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .
If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²
23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²
Divide each side by 1.5 kg : 23.52 m²/s² = speed²
Take the square root of each side: speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) = <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)
Answer:
area is 2d volume is 3d
Explanation:
Area refers to the size of two-dimensional surface. Volume refers to the size of a three-dimensional space.
Answer:
Energy
Explanation:
When an object vibrates, it creates kinetic energy that is transmitted by molecules in the medium. As the vibrating sound wave comes in contact with air particles passes its kinetic energy to nearby molecules. As these energized molecules begin to move, they energize other molecules that repeat the process.
Answer: During sexual reproduction, the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically-diverse offspring that differ from their parents. The genetic diversity of sexually-produced offspring is thought to give species a better chance of surviving in an unpredictable or changing environment
Answer: a
Explanation: because the answer is 1.4444444 and that's the closest
